Hours per person, because the dependent quantity is the hours Hours per person, because the dependent quantity is the people People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the hours People per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people

Respuesta :

I'd say the correct answer is the last option, "people per hour, because the dependent quantity is the people". Merely because the independent quantity is almost always time, in this case hours, because the number of people depends on the number of hours. It is more useful to know how many people are coming in every hour.
